Slows a quick eater
I put my cat's dry food in this to slow him down because my orange boy has swallowed multiple pieces whole at once, and it made me worried about choking. This slows him down and makes him think, which keeps his boredom reigned in a bit too. I don't use the mouse skins that come with it mainly because they get dirty easier and are harder to clean than the plastic inserts. My cat didn't care either way. He just wants the food!
Works well
We ordered these feeders in an attempt to slow down the rate at which our 2 rescues off the streets ate. Both cats would inhale their food. These mice work well to slow that down. The fabric cover will not last long though.
Good for fatty catty cats who need to slow down
Kitsune is a 15lb big girl. She's very food motivated. I put just her normal daily kibble in this with the handy food scoop. Thanks! No stinky cat food fingers! I adjusted it to allow the kibble out. I tightened down the elastic tail on the mouse and double knotted it. She likes eating non-food items too. And she immediately figured it out. She has other toy feeders that are ball or egg shaped. This allowed her to eat. But slowly. She got bored with it after maybe 5 or 6 food releases. Which is actually exactly what I want! Slow her down from just inhaling everything in sight!
Kitten doesn't really hunt for them
I fill them up and put them around house and he just finds them sometimes and bats them around to get the food out. I'm going to mark yes, recommend but I'm on the fence
Excellent activity!
I have two kittens who have a lot of energy and literally stalk everything in the house. They go crazy over these! I use them for enrichment and it keeps them busy and engaged, plus it's fun to watch them "hunt"!
Immediate hit
I am floored. My 2 street kitty rescues have so much energy all the time and were adept hunters when out on their own it made sense to try these. And what a hit. The 10 month old female Cleo rolled it around, then batted it then picked it up in her mouth and shook it. It took her about 15 minutes to get the tablespoon of kibble out. Tomorrow I’ll hide hers. She went all primal and dismembered a few of her toys right after too, so it definitely taps into something instinctual. The surprise though was my 14 year old female senior. She got one with a couple treats on the easiest setting and had it cleared when I went back to check. She’s a lifetime indoor kitty so I didn’t have any expectations -but pleasantly surprised. Now, my 2 year old male knows what’s in there but prefers to eat the ones young Cleo shakes out. I imagine I’ll see him with one in a week or so getting his own. All said, Fantastic buy and highly recommended.
Great Interactive Feeder
This is a great way for cats to hunt. They can be used for food or treats. They are a good motivator to get the chubby cats moving! And a good enrichment tool for mental stimulation too!
Not as pictured, but works
Looks exactly like the hunting snacker, but a slightly different shade of blue. It has a slider rather than 2 openings. However, the product works well. My cat seems to be entertained by them and less likely to wake me up asking for food.
Helped my cat slow down
I am so glad I found these feeders. My 1yo female cat started gorging on her dry food and then threw up a few times. I use these during the day, before I go to work, and I use them at night before I go to bed. They help her slow down eating and makes it fun! I HIGHLY recommend it
Does what it's supposed to do
I bought this primarily to entertain our cat during feeding time. She engages with these just fine and didn't need the training insert with the two holes. I had to replace the tails because the cat destroyed them and the resistance on one of the mice is shot after a couple months of daily use. But overall a decent item. We use them every night to feed our cat and have multiple locations around the house that we hide them.
